I talked to my mom, who so graciously gifted me a “Sweet Betsy” and a couple of ferns while we were helping her mulch the front yard a couple of weeks ago.

I was telling her how the yard was coming along earlier tonight and I’d taken some pictures last night, and wanted to share them with her and the rest of you, who are still hanging in there with me during this backyard overhaul….

So here are the images, thus far:

Ferns and Sweet Betsy, who is going to be fine!

Blackberry blossoms. I see a gallon of wine. 🙂

The Nandina/Heavenly Bamboo area…

Where we put grass and are hoping it comes up!

Site of the gazebo …

Mom, if you mouse over each image, there is a caption…

For everyone (including Mom), did I mention there would be a hammock? ( 😉 )

A two person hammock is in the process of being shipped, and will land between the lupine/cast iron plant/dahlia bed and the nandinas….

Did I ever mention that there WILL be a hammock?

Yeah, that’s going to be mine…Oh, yes! That will be mine! (Is that an inadvertent Wayne’s World reference? Quite possibly…)

Until next time, y’all!!! 🙂

EDITED TO ADD: There is Alphonse Karr clumping bamboo on the way, as well…Pictures at eleven (on the day they are planted, of course!). Thank you, tytyga.com!

This is coming to my house soon! Going to go along our fence-line similar to what’s shown…
